Falcons player hits WNBA star’s SUV with Lamborghini
Matters of the heart can be difficult, but why let emotions cause you to wreck a perfectly fine Lamborghini? NFL player James Pearce Jr. plays for the Atlanta Falcons and has some explaining to do.
He dated WNBA star Rickea Jackson, but didn’t take the breakup well. Jackson contacted police in Florida when she noticed that Pearce was following her in a white Lamborghini SUV. He exited the vehicle and tried to open her door.
She changed traffic routes to head toward the Doral Police Department when Pearce intentionally collided with the rear of her vehicle. According to The Grio, he cut her off and slammed into her SUV head-on.
When police officers arrived, Pearce fled the scene and struck an officer in the knee. Pearce didn’t make it far and crashed the Lamborghini. Then he failed to get away on foot.
He faces charges for two felony counts of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and a felony count of aggravated stalking. Also, he faces charges for fleeing and eluding police officers and aggravated battery of a law enforcement officer.
Pearce was released upon posting a $20,500 bond and has been ordered to stay away from Jackson. There is an ongoing investigation into the matter. He faces a minimum of five years in prison if convicted on any of the felony charges.
